It says so on the website so I'm sure it is, but seems to good to be true.LOL. We are heading down tomorrow, and going to the parks Thursday and Friday. Our plane doesn't leave until 1pm on Saturday so I thought it would be fun to go to Downtown Disney in the morning for some shopping/breakfast.

Magic Way, which is a short spike of a road that runs betweens Disneyland Dr. and Walnut St. on the north side of DTD. <a href="http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=W.+Magic+Way,+Anaheim,+CA&sll=33.809783,-117.92304&sspn=0.00895,0.013819&ie=UTF8&ll=33.813473,-117.925572&spn=0.008522,0.013819&z=16&iwloc=addr" target="_blank">http://maps.google.com/maps?f=...loc=addr</a>
